Svasta Rejuvenation Retreat

A Guided Journey of Renewal in the Heart of Costa Rica
With Diana Pipaloff
May 15 – 22, 2027  |  Central Valley, Costa Rica
Restore your energy. Reconnect with yourself. Return home with a personalized path forward.

A seven-night small-group retreat blending restorative practices, whole-person health education, guided reflection, and personalized planning for greater energy and vitality.

Come Home to Yourself

Step away from the demands and noise of everyday life and into seven restorative days designed to help you rejuvenate your energy, reconnect with yourself, and create a more sustainable path toward greater vitality.

Set in the lush mountains of Costa Rica’s Central Valley, the Svasta Rejuvenation Retreat offers a balance of rest, gentle movement, meditation, time in nature, nourishing food, community, and spacious time to simply be. Through guided exploration, you’ll gain greater insight into what supports your energy and well-being, along with practical tools you can carry back into daily life.

This is a unique opportunity to slow down, step outside your usual routines, and give your body and mind the space to recover. Through restorative practices and guided reflection, you’ll explore what restores you, what may be depleting you, and what helps you feel most grounded, capable, and fully yourself.

Throughout the week, you will be introduced to the principles of the Svasta Energy Reset book, exploring how stress and recovery, daily rhythms, nourishment, movement, mindset, and the way we structure our lives can influence our energy, resilience, and capacity to live more fully.
You will also be guided in creating your own Energy Renewal Blueprint, a personalized framework that brings together what you discover during the retreat and helps you translate those insights into a more supportive way of living.

You will leave Costa Rica not only feeling rested and renewed, but with greater clarity about how to support your energy, well-being, and the life you want to return to.


More than a retreat! This experience is a reset you can bring home. 

You'll return with...
  • Deeper understanding of what restores versus depletes your energy
  • Practical tools for nervous-system regulation and recovery
  • Greater clarity around rhythms, habits, and priorities
  • A personalized Energy Renewal Blueprint
  • Renewed connection with yourself and others
  • A realistic path for maintaining what you gained after returning home.

The Experience

Each day offers a balance of guided yoga & meditation practice, learning, reflection, connection, and time to just be!

  • Morning meditation and gentle yoga
  • Guided relaxation and nervous system restoration
  • Workshops on energy, recovery, resilience, and sustainable well-being
  • Guided reflection and journaling
  • Conversation and meaningful connection
  • Time to rest, read, journal, walk, and enjoy nature
  • Optional excursions, activities, and spa treatments 
  • A wonderful balance of guidance and space
  • Develop your personal Energy Renewal Blueprint

Your Energy Renewal BlueprinT

Insight can be powerful, but it alone does not always translate into lasting change.
Throughout the retreat, you will be guided through the creation of your own Energy Renewal Blueprint, helping you bring together what you are learning about yourself into a practical plan for life after Costa Rica.

Your blueprint will help you explore areas such as:
  • Your primary sources of energy depletion
  • What most effectively supports your restoration and recovery
  • Daily rhythms that work with your body rather than against it
  • Priorities around sleep, nourishment, movement, stress, and recovery
  • Practices that feel realistic and sustainable in your actual life
  • The changes you most want to carry forward
You will leave with greater clarity, support, and capacity to implement your new restorative practices and nourish what matters most for you.

A Special Retreat Gift

You will receive a signed copy of Diana’s book, The Svasta Energy Reset as a special thank you for joining us on the retreat experience.
The book and retreat are designed to complement one another, allowing you to continue exploring the principles of energy, restoration, capacity, and whole-person health long after the week is over.

Meet Your Retreat Guide
 




Diana Pipaloff, MS, CAS, NBC-HWC, PCC

Hi, I'm Diana. For over 20 years, I’ve led retreats around the world, including Mexico, Costa Rica, Hawaii, Thailand, and Cambodia. There’s a very special feeling that comes from immersing yourself in a week of beautiful nature, great healthy food, yoga, meditation, amazing company, and unforgettable adventures. I’ve loved the opportunity to share that with others and create something truly special that feels completely different from everyday life. A space where you can slow down, reconnect with yourself, experience a new place, and share meaningful time with a wonderful group of people.

My goal is to create an immersive experience with the right balance of introspection, community, adventure, and exploration, where the escape actually becomes a path back to yourself.

Join me for a week of deep rejuvenation with time for yoga, meditation, reflection, and meaningful conversations, but also beautiful surroundings, great food, laughter, connection, and the freedom to simply enjoy where you are.

The Svasta Rejuvenation Retreat brings together everything I have learned from decades of teaching, coaching, travel, and leading retreats. This special retreat has a deeper focus on restoring energy, building resilience, and helping you return home with something meaningful you can carry into your life. You’ll leave Costa Rica feeling restored, inspired, connected, and with memories you will carry with you for years to come.
